Well, that's clearly illegal in most places. Ads have to be somehow identifyable as ads, because of misinformation (ads lie, who thought?). Just wait for the court case.
Im starting to think that is their game, doing whatever is illegal until caught by a court of law, and then find ways to do it without getting caught.
Or the fine is so small it's just a "cost of doing business"
Well they clearly aren't normal posts, so I guess they're obviously ads?
Also Twitter is one man who hates laws now, so most places might need to see about enforcing that.
